[meteorite-list] Lightning, stars and a meteor

[bcmeteorites]

Ginger,
Great Photo!!  I was with a group on the west side of south park (about 15
miles west of you) and saw the exact same scene.  The combination of the
lightning storm and the meteor's overhead was spectacular.  Thanks for
posting image.  Hope to see more tonight.
Clear Skies!!

Hi all,

Yes, I still read the list from time to time and thought you all might
enjoy the image I took last night from our astro club's dark site here
in Colorado.  We had a strong lightning storm off to the east but stars
above so I was trying to get a few lightning shots.  As I was shooting a
meteor, most likely a Perseid, streaked above the storm.  Here's the
link.  Hope to get more tonight if the monsoons will hold off a bit longer.
